A Utah County sheriff's deputy has been arrested in connection with child sexual abuse allegations from Arizona.

Orem police late Friday arrested Gerald Salcido, a 14-year employee with Utah County, said Sgt. Spencer Cannon, spokesman for the sheriff's office.

The deputy was placed on unpaid administrative leave.

Salcido, 63, was indicted in Maricopa County, Arizona, on two counts of sexual conduct with a minor and one count molestation of a child, all felonies, Cannon said. He did not know when Salcido was charged.

Cannon said he expects Salcido to be extradited to Arizona on Monday morning. Bail was set at $75,000.
